Try 4.0, and you'll want to raise NMBCLUSTERS in your kernel config
file, for this kind of test I would start at 57600 and go up until
the panics stop.  It would have been more helpful if you had supplied
the amount of memory the system is configured with, there may just
not be enough ram for you to have that many connections open.
